IMPROVEMENT TO COME Z. GRAVES HAS BIG PROGRAM SCHEDULED AFTER ADJUST. MENT WITH THE GOVERNMENE NEW TRACT To BE OPEN FOR LOHBUb ica The man with a broad outlook is the man who makes things go when he |posseases great business ability . as | weil as vision. Again the man of ime domitable courage and will is met leasily overcome or discouraged and is likely to override big obstacles which |crush ordinary.men. N. Z. Graves connected hime self with Cape May in the first cane, me m cottuger and for a number of years, he and family, were mort highly ee- — teemed here by all who knew him. Perhaps Mr. Graven‘ first business interest here was model farm known us Cape May Farmstead, which he Imunched ten or twelve years ago and has been from time to time enlarging Jand improving. It is one of.the largent farming enterprines in the county conducted in the most approved modern manner and of incalculable value to ether farmers as an illustration of scientific methods. It was not until Mr. Graves personally took hold of the Cape May Real Estate Company‘s holdings that things began to move in this enterprise. The story of the reasons which attracted him to this project no much out of his usual business track, can be told fully by Mr. Graves alone, but at the base was the vision of a greater Cape May in the not distant future and the far-sighted grasp of the immense possibilities in the Cape May Harbor and other featuren of location, climate, water routes, and seaport ade vantages, that inspired him. . This vision in even now fully justified by events and in the unfolding of the future there will be much more complete justification. | Uncle Sam‘s cye was on the harbor for a long time, before he determined to make use of it with a finality, which is most conclusive, He has given ample evidence of his [belief that it is to him one of the im» , |portant spots on the Atlantic count. amd has planted himself here for all time. The Navy Yard, Aviation Base am Cle Com aca cC there is more to come. . The large commercial use of the harbor is only a question of time. If Mr. Graves placed any time limit upon the realization of his dreams. the war brought the naval part of them shoad of the schedule and thr rest will appear im due time, The rapid upbuilding of the new tract began immediately . after | Mr. Graves became the responsible owner, and the government has now reduce the urea to be developed by nrivite enterprise, by purchasing all of the land from Yale Avenue, cantward to Sewell‘« Point. Mr. Graver‘ task, therefore, will be to secure the rapid improvement of what is left and his plans to this end are ready for execution as soon mm final wettlement with the government ix wecured. . All of the difficultiex and discouragements . which .. heretofore have hindred his progress will have been overcome, | The obstacles in his way during the past five years or {more were numerous enough and for{midable enough to have caured mag but a man of extraordinary and wom derful ability and endurance to have despaired. but Mr. Graves his emerged full of courage and ambition. and will undoubtedly realize | hin . far-sighted plans ond make actual his. splendid vision of Cape Muy‘ future. . Cape May people have never withheld eerdial godapeed to such efforts un he is making. and will make and they. will hope that he will win the lrgest amecess possible. ---» se.
